Your servlet on receiving error, can generate a HTML page with the error
information. You can make use of client-side pull within that generated
page, to "refresh" the page to the original login-page after said amount
of time.
Somthing like this :
<META http-equiv="REFRESH" content="10; <Login page URL> ">
That will display the error page for 10 secs and take the user to the
login page.
If you want user to acknowledge the error, you might as well put a
button on the error page and then take the user back to login page.
Hope it helps.
